Leaffooted bug nymph, Acanthocphala spp.
by: Moni

This insect is the young stage or nymph of a true bug known as a leaffooted bug. Nymphs of the true bugs usually look much like the adults, but do not have full length wings.
They are normally found on brush, shrubs, or small trees in woodlands and old field areas.
Leaffooted bugs in this genus feed on plant juices, tho are not a pest.
Here are images of adults and nymphs - http://bugguide.net/node/view/16073/bgimage
